Tabon Man: A Reflection Paper

“Man still bears in his bodily frame the indelible stamp of his lowly origin. –Charles
Darwin.” Darwin’s dangerous ideas about us being part of, evolved from and forever remaining
in the natural world the so-called “animal kingdom” are opposed because people don’t want to
be considered “monkeys”. I believe that we are not only part of the natural world around us, we
emerged as something special, we will continue as something that should exist; therefore we
must exist. The origin of life has for centuries and that includes these present post-modern times
been a subject of debate. The arguments of believers and those with a scientific conviction are
both strong. If Charles Darwin, whose attachment to the Bible loosened progressively through
his youth and middle age – could argue that life as we know it has evolved, there is a counter
argument that no evidence exists to support the veracity of his position.

The earliest known humans in the Philippines which were the Tabon Man. It stated that
the fossil bone of Tabon Man, such as its skull, found in the country does not match with the
skull dimension of a modern Filipino. Before the traders arrived here in the Philippines; our
ancestors here in Palawan were publishing their own art as they what imagine or their see. And
also as they history remembrance to know the next people what they did have done and what are
they believes. It is begin from the Palawan’s to grown with their own arts and also trading from
the Arab, Indio, Chinese, and Vietnamese are trade to the Palawan’s. As I know the native have
some a lot of knowledge about the treasure that never seen before it is because they’re afraid to
tell it. But, because they want to preserve it. Natives of today much has ideas in what they
wanted to do. As of now the other tribe are in the mountain not disturb by the people.
Their tribe were not able to do their monthly or yearly to do it because of the civilization.
Where now in the Palawan tribes were had a law to the indigenous people to preserve what the
Palawan made in. And the ancestors of this province were from. The other tribes now are in the
middle of the civilization of the world. We all know that the tribes of Palawan were getting
smaller is because of modernization. Here in Palawan the tribes are not only a tribe but they are
important to the society because of their have done not because of them it because their ancestor
teach them. They have a lot talent but we can’t find what they are. For the other tribes they have
a different beliefs, culture, food, clothing, arts, political and health services in their tribe. And
that culture was very different to the other but as I know that they can be understood from their
languages and the sign. And also to their older male in the tribes can be understand the other
Palawan tribes.

“History is the interpretation of the significance that the past has for us” Through
interpretation, historians say what they believe the past means. They attempt to explain why and
how things happened as they did and why particular elements in the past are important. It has
historical significance of the caves as you venture through it, discussing everything that has been
unearthed so far–and what else there is to find. (as cited in https://www.inc.com/bill-
